Genghis Khan began life with nothing but an obsession for an old legend that spoke of the great destiny of the Mongols. It would take a miracle for one man to fulfill this legend and turn divided Mongolia into an empire stretching from China to Europe. Genghis Khan was determined to supply this miracle.

In battle, out-maneuver your opponent with cavalry, lay siege to his castle with archers, or even challenge him to a duel. Battlefield victory alone does not mean conquest. The newly acquired country must be governed, prisoners dealt with and a successor found. A successful rendezvous with a local princess may help solve the last of these problems.

GENGHIS KHAN is a sophisticated simulation for one to four players. Although a great war game, the human side of empire-building has not been forgotten. Finding the right way to approach a hostile empress is just as important as training troops for battle. Know the people around you and use them effectively. In a world where empires rise and fall with the seasons do not let your guard down and be ready for a host of problems, natural and otherwise.
